Five voyagers climbed into the Titan submersible in hopes of joining the select few who have seen the wreck of the Titanic up close. Their planned 12-hour voyage most likely ended in less than two. nyti.ms/3XBAO5o

Walking down the streets, locals can hear the moans and sobs of heartbroken mothers. Echoing out of the mosque is the near constant recitation of the Quran, as fathers plead with God to somehow keep their lost sons alive. @cegoldbaum nytimes.com/2023/06/21/world…

They had names. They had families.
Timely and heartbreaking reporting by @cegoldbaum & Zia ur-Rehman about the Pakistani village that saw its sons drown in the Mediterranean off Greece last week.

Once unthinkable, the scenes of violent protest that broke out across Pakistan after Imran Khan was arrested on Tuesday, seemed to cross a line against defying the army that has rarely been breached in Pakistan’s turbulent history

The economic desperation among Pakistanis has played out in stark scenes during Ramadan. At least 22 people killed, dozens injured in stampedes/long queues as people struggle to get some of the food being distributed by charities and govt. With @cegoldbaum nytimes.com/2023/04/17/world…

Many hoped former PM Imran Khan’s court appearance on Saturday would defuse political tensions that boiled over this week. Instead, fresh clashes between the police and his supporters outside the courtroom only added to the chaos. w/ @salmanmasood nytimes.com/2023/03/18/world…

What a tribute, on such a melancholic day. Perfect tone struck by @cegoldbaum (with Kiana's always arresting portraits). Putting Afghan women starkly front and center.

The Taliban’s takeover ended decades of war. But their restrictions, and the economic fallout, threw many women into a new era of diminished hopes. w/ @jacoob1994 @safipadshah @NajimRah Kiana Hayeri nytimes.com/interactive/2023…

Soon the infant fell silent in his arms. His tears turned to ice that clung to his face. By daybreak, he was gone.
“The cold took him.”

When winter truck Niaz’s village in Aghanistan, the cold was merciless. One night ice covered the windows, then the walls, then the blanket on his wailing son.
Soon the infant fell silent in his arms. His tears turned to ice. By daybreak, he was gone.
